Losing your virginity took 15 minutes. Losing your naivete may never occur. elpolvo, you're right. there are journalistic codes of ethics. i found a good one here: spj.org; I'm shocked and dismayed that you revert to this nonsense for anything. This is the journalist/whore bullsh!t that is the equivalent of the Enron "code of ethics". You may not know everything. But let me educate you about the upper management of the so-called Society of Professional Journalists, circa 2001-2. I know the past President. His name is Al Cross. He is a "journalist" in Louisville, KY. During that period, I and another SI member sent Al Cross multiple explosive articles from such Internet based publications as Truthout, Buzzflash, Alternet, Common Dreams, Znet, American Prospect, the Guardian, Independent UK, Le Figaro, Die Zeit and others about the malfeasance and criminality of the Bush regime. Al Cross, President of the Society of Professional Journalists, threw each and every one of our honest and explosive articles into the trash. And then he concentrated on the goal of his wife. She's a scion of a dubiously annointed aristocratic Republican family in Kentucky. And Al forgot about all the evil and the ill that the Republicans were corruptly involved in, and he obsessively reported on a stale, faded and failed love affair of the Democratic governor of Kentucky. Was Al effective? Damn tootin'! He was absolutely instrumental in imposing a Repuglican governor on Kentucky. Did Al give a damn about his dishonesty and corruption? Absolutely not. He was very well rewarded for lying by misleading the voters of Kentucky. The lesson to be learned? Only the most despicable people in America can succeed in our present malevolent and despicable form of governance. And if you are a complete scumbag like Al Cross, you are doubly blessed.
